You should always use wheel bonnets or ratchets that go over the tires whenever possible

[@50buttfish]

This video sounds like you are giving simple instructions to all the NEW BEGINNERS! Great info. Used to do something like this with my boat on the ocean.

[@orvillealdrich7601]

Great job! Appreciate the detailed explanation

[@danharvey61]

Very thorough, excellent beginners video. Happy Trails!

[@georgefarr3478]

When that vehicle on the trailer bounces your straps are going to come loose I always go through the rim at around 10:00 and 2:00 you're on a bumpy road that will bounce loose

[@fetiish636]

This is so cringe! So many wrong things to do....

[@nokimping4631]

😮

[@jaschaklemm2573]

Great Safety Instruction for Carrying these Polaris General! Great Vehicle! Great Safety Instructor! Dirty Hands are proof of honest Money. (Wisdom of a Mechanic) .

[@steven4469]

I personally would of backed the rzr on looks to me that the weight of your engine is behind the axle, which could cause your trailer to fishtail and possibly flip. Lots of info out there on weight distribution.

[@giovannim701]

Trailering is just fun to do

[@kevinbarry3500]

What size trailer would you recommend for a XP 1000 Trails and Rock?

[@mingomane1]

12’ at least

[@raphaelm617]

Great video guys, what size is your trailer?

[@eschenn1]

80" wide and 14' long

[@biggiesmalls3083]

What size trailer is that?

[@debbielofton359]

How much does the Polaris trailer cost

[@victorandersson5599]

You are super pedagogical! 😁
Get my Polaris sportsman 570 hunter in....... 3 days! 😂
Now its just a matter of how to break it in, not to break it. 😏

[@comlbbeau]

I would also add to be sure to achieve proper (10-15%) tongue weight when positioning the unit onto the trailer.

[@ivanmogollon6553]

i was told that for a 4 seater sxs you need to run 2 axel trailer? single axel is good only for 2 seater? i have a carson steel trailer 6.5x12.

[@mingomane1]

Not true. Dual axle may pull better but single is fine. Just get a nice single axle.

[@mingomane1]

Also depends on what you are towing with. For instance a dual axle is a lot of trailer for a small-mid suv.

[@keithnelson765]

Step 9, verify all lights work on the trailer, thanks.

[@A-man-100]

You don't attach to bumpers, it's an attachment using bolts and too high up compressing suspenssion. Also, why can't you use the A-arm? Ideally tie tires down. If you can do that you tie to A-arm as close as possible to the tire.

[@fetiish636]

Don't ever tie down to any moving part.. just get wheel buckets ... don't compress suspension... ever......

[@jimherman1395]

Good basic information but wish this guy would talk like an adult and quit acting so goofy

[@williamscott3444]

I agree...

[@masonries4139]

Ok first of all you dont have to put a full suit on just to put it on the trailer and use 4wd and low gear its not that hard for the machine to go up a ramp

[@CMorHiking]

Strapping to any part of the car that is suspended is a Big No-No. This will cause your car to bounce during transit, and eventually break a strap. You need to strap the tires down to the trailer using Bonnets, Ring Straps, etc... Good job Polaris, lol.

[@lymannewton7261]

Just to let you know one thing I do when strapping a trailer down.
I cross my ratchet straps just like I do for my safety chains.

[@davidschlarp1606]

So if 1 breaks it pulls the vehicle sideways. Smart

[@lymannewton7261]

@@davidschlarp1606 why are you using junk tie downs. I always inspect my work in 10 miles and half way to my destination. That's SMART

[@snomofilms]

You guys really are amateurs. Far better info out there, people.

[@m.wilson2624]

You put all of your riding gear on.....helmet and all to drive onto your trailer!?! Wow .......

[@EbenPajanconi]

Clean your lens bruh

[@Raritan36]

When strapping you only get the capacity of 2 straps at any time because when you are pulling against a strap the straps on the other side do nothing so 20000 lbs straps only give 10000 lbs in any direction

[@mingomane1]

What? I’ve never heard of this anywhere.

[@jasonbrown9388]

Try Cargo Buckles and shorten poor Eric's videography to a 3-minute video.

[@lloydsweat2275]

This is so embarrassing

[@davidpowell6012]

Could you dramatize it a little bit more ?

[@TroyJohnson-oh8bq]

This was incredibly painful to watch, so much wrong.

[@JeffreyJohnston724]

to much nonsense talk you should get to the point
